Herfst is here

The herfst (autumn that is!) has well and truly arrived, with grey and decidedly cooler weather and discussions at school about the best way to serve up brussel sprouts (spruitjes)!! Apparently it is now THE season for these lovely little green numbers, and a BIG favourite seems to be serving them together with another autumn special, chestnuts (kastanjes). As far as I can tell, it seems the combination of these two is delicious and is mostly reserved for special occasions, like Xmas. Maybe for my first winter Xmas I can convince Jeroen it is a good idea to serve this dish ;-))) Actually I really like both, but can't imagine what they must taste like together.
